O'Brien and Burns Enter Ring Tonight
Two heavyweight contenders Jack O'Brien of Philadelphia and Tom Burns formerly of Seattle meet in a twenty round world title bout in Los Angeles. O'Brien is the betting favorite at 10 to 6 with $12 000 at stake for the home club. Burns is praised for speed and a win over Marvin Hart but faces a strong challenger in a fast paced, action oriented contest expected to be among the swiftest for their weight.

Corbett Predicts OBrien To Beat Burns In Los Angeles
J J Corbett writes that he expects Jack OBrien to defeat Tommy Burns in tonight's Los Angeles bout. He argues Burns relies on hugging and may struggle against a foe who boxes, breaks cleanly, and does not hug. Corbett predicts a clear OBrien victory, perhaps not a knockout.
Fight Trust May Queer the Game
James J. Corbett argues the fight trust endangers boxing sport as factions clash over match terms. He notes Jeffries, Hackenschmidt, and other heavyweights failing to find top opposition, while public eagerness remains high but risk of a biased ring persists.
